Heavenly Restriction User of the Gojo Clan: I Refuse to Be Cut in Half

As Satoshi held the two newly forged Zanpakutō—one long, one short—everyone present was visibly astonished.

Shoko was amazed by how effortlessly the Zanpakutō had been born.

Satoru and the others, however, were stunned for a completely different reason, Satoshi had forged two Zanpakutō at once.

What's going on? Has the forging process evolved to the point where a single cursed tool material can now create two Zanpakutō?

Shunichi was becoming more and more shocked by Satoshi's forging skills. Although the two swords, crafted from the same Asauchi, seemed different from the others, their presence was imposing.

These two swords... they feel like a pair.

Meanwhile, Satoru held his Senbonzakura, watching with narrowed eyes. He didn't feel that his own Zanpakutō was inferior, but...

Is this the special Zanpakutō that Satoshi mentioned before?

Toji, on the other hand, already knew this pair of Zanpakutō was made for him. For the first time in a long while, his normally unshakable heart wavered.

Amidst the astonished gazes, Satoshi examined the swords in his hands and nodded.

Katen Kyōkotsu—a dual-blade Zanpakutō, consisting of one long and one short blade. The rectangular tsuba had its corners cut off, adorned with petal-like decorations. The hilt was wrapped in purple-red cloth.
